Sachin Tendulkar -Legend Redefined

5ft five inch height. A smiling face, reflecting calmness
and determination at the same time .A personality beaming incessant passion for
the game of Cricket. Be it the straight drive or paddle sweep;backfoot punch or
cut; leg glance or hook ;he has the rare distinction of coating every shot with
flamboyance. Be it the in swinger or out swinger ;off spin or leg spin; Yorker or
Bouncer; He can face it all with ease,
perfection and smile. If cricket is a crown he is the diamond in it. That’s –SACHIN RAMESH
TENDULKAR….for you…

Records seem to
be his close friend. You name it he has it. Most number of runs in one days and
Test. Most centuries and fifties .Most number of matches played in both formats…oh
the list is endless…

Even after having
almost all records under his name his hunger did not die..Every time he came to
the field he depicted that passion. That
endless hunger for runs was always seen in him…right from the age 0f 16
till the age of 40.Oh it was treat to watch him on the field..Not just batting..He
excelled as a bowler too and even fielding. The commitment ;the attitude of
giving his 100 percent was seen in his every aspect of cricket….The respect he
has for the game is immense

Another unparalleled
trait of his is Humility. He has all records under his name, a billion people
as his fans, yet there has not been a case of arrogance .Never was he involved
in a scandal..nor did he question the umpire’s decision .All he did was to play
cricket with a smiling face. This trait is seen quite a lot among his contemporaries
be it Dravid, Laxman, Ganguly or Kumble.The younger Cricketing Generation
should learn from these legends..”Its not enough if you score a ton or take
a 5 wicket haul. What makes you great is this trait called Humility.”

entertained but also inspired us. You have taught us that relentless passion,hardwork
